Vector Shift — Living Worlds Placement Decision#

Canon • Stated by Briana • 19 September 2026

Briana's words#

i approve placement

She was replying to the questions left for her at the end of the 19 September report (the chess proposal and the almanac wrap-up). The first of them read: "The Living Worlds Movement and the Continuance Circle are now placed on Kethra as a proposal, because you asked for their almanac. Strike that if it isn't what you meant."

What is now canon#

The Living Worlds Movement and the Continuance Circle are on Kethra in AL 2314, at the opening of the first era, the colonial wars.

What changes#

What this does not settle#

• The rest of the almanac is still a proposal. That covers the Living Worlds Movement almanac (files 56–58): the Movement's history and people, what the Tideward League is to it, the Seeding Limits Bill's clauses, the flag, and the Continuance Circle's acts.
• The relationship register is not changed. It places both factions in the later colonial-fracture era, and this decision does not address that placement. The register remains a read-only input.

Files updated to match#

• The spine (Kethra Almanac/00): a row in the canon table; the faction-table row marked canon.
• The Who's Who (Kethra Almanac/10): both rows marked ✅ for placement.
• The Living Worlds Movement almanac (Kethra Almanac/56, 57): the status list and the guidance for AI actors.
